What Our CosmWasm Execution Cost Audit Delivers
Our specialized audit provides a detailed breakdown of gas consumption, identifies optimization opportunities, and delivers concrete recommendations to reduce your contract's operational costs and improve performance on-chain.
Comprehensive Gas Profiling
We deliver a line-by-line analysis of your CosmWasm contract's gas usage, identifying the most expensive operations (e.g., storage writes, iterators, crypto ops) and providing a clear cost map for your entire codebase.
Optimization Roadmap
Receive a prioritized list of actionable fixes, from low-hanging fruit (state access patterns) to architectural improvements. We quantify the potential gas savings for each recommendation.
Performance Benchmarking
We benchmark your contract's execution costs against industry standards and similar dApps, providing context on whether your gas usage is competitive or requires significant optimization.
Architecture Review for Cost
Beyond line-by-line fixes, we audit your contract's architectural decisions (state design, message flow, cross-contract calls) for long-term cost efficiency and scalability pitfalls.
Security-Cost Intersection Analysis
We identify areas where security practices (e.g., input validation, access control) impact gas costs and recommend efficient patterns that maintain security without unnecessary overhead.
Developer-Focused Reporting
Get a clear, actionable audit report with code snippets, before/after examples, and integration guidance. Our findings are designed for your engineering team to implement quickly.
Business Outcomes: Lower Costs, Better Performance
Our CosmWasm Execution Cost Auditor delivers measurable infrastructure improvements. See the direct impact on your bottom line and user experience.
Predictable & Reduced Gas Costs
Proactive gas profiling identifies inefficient contract logic and storage patterns before deployment, preventing costly on-chain surprises. Achieve up to 40% gas savings on complex transactions.
Enhanced Network Performance
Optimize for sub-second finality by analyzing and refining execution paths. Our audits ensure your dApp meets performance benchmarks for high-frequency DeFi and gaming applications.
Accelerated Development Cycles
Integrate cost auditing into your CI/CD pipeline to catch inefficiencies early. Reduce debugging time and accelerate your go-to-market by weeks.
Informed Architectural Decisions
Get data-driven insights on storage costs, cross-contract calls, and query performance. Make smarter technical choices that scale efficiently with user growth.
Build vs. Buy: In-House Analysis vs. Chainscore Audit
A detailed comparison of developing an in-house CosmWasm gas profiling tool versus leveraging Chainscore's specialized execution cost audit service.
| Factor | Build In-House | Chainscore Audit Service |
|---|---|---|
Time to Initial Results | 3-6 months (development + testing) | 2-4 weeks (onboarding + first audit) |
Upfront Development Cost | $150K - $300K+ (engineering resources) | $15K - $50K (service fee) |
Expertise Required | Deep CosmWasm VM, compiler, and gas profiling knowledge | Provided by our specialized audit team |
Coverage & Accuracy | Limited to team's expertise; risk of missed edge cases | Comprehensive analysis using battle-tested, proprietary tooling |
Ongoing Maintenance | Significant (tool updates, chain upgrades, bug fixes) | Included (service is always up-to-date) |
Security Risk | High (untested, unaudited tooling on mainnet) | Minimal (audits conducted with proven methodology) |
Actionable Reporting | Basic raw data output | Prioritized findings with optimization recommendations |
Integration with CI/CD | Custom implementation required | Pre-built CI/CD plugins & GitHub Actions |
Total Cost (First Year) | $200K - $500K | $50K - $150K |
Best For | Large enterprises with dedicated blockchain tooling teams | Protocols & dApps focused on product, not infrastructure |
Our 3-Phase Audit Methodology
Our systematic approach ensures no gas optimization opportunity or critical vulnerability is overlooked, delivering a comprehensive report with actionable, prioritized findings.
Phase 1: Architecture & Gas Pattern Review
We analyze your CosmWasm contract's design patterns, storage schemas, and execution flow to identify systemic inefficiencies. This phase establishes a baseline for gas consumption and flags high-cost architectural decisions before line-by-line analysis.
Phase 2: Line-by-Line Execution Analysis
Using custom tooling built on cosmwasm-check, we profile every query and execute path. We pinpoint expensive operations—excessive iterations, redundant state reads/writes, and suboptimal cryptographic calls—providing specific code-level recommendations.
Phase 3: Optimization & Final Verification
We validate all proposed fixes in a testnet environment, providing before/after gas cost comparisons. The final deliverable is a detailed audit report with severity-ranked findings, remediation code snippets, and a verifiable performance benchmark.
CosmWasm Cost Audit FAQs
Common questions from CTOs and engineering leads about our execution cost audit process, deliverables, and value.
Our standard audit engagement takes 7-10 business days from contract signing to final report delivery. This includes our 3-phase process: initial analysis, deep-dive simulation, and optimization recommendations. For complex protocols with 50+ contracts, timelines may extend to 2-3 weeks. We provide a detailed project plan within 48 hours of kickoff.
